Respond appropriately to all alleged violations.
Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, medical record review, and facility P&P review, the facility failed to thoroughly investigate the
allegations of abuse for one of two sampled residents (Resident 1).
Residents Affected - Few
* Resident 1 claimed he was hit in the head by a staff member. The facility failed to ensure other residents
were interviewed by the facility's Abuse Coordinator. This failure had the potential to put Resident 1 and
other residents at risk of not being protected against the alleged abuse.
Findings:
Review of the facility's P&P titled Abuse Reporting and Prevention dated 8/2018 showed all reported
incidents of abuse will be investigated by the Abuse Coordinator or designee thoroughly and report the
results to the appropriate agencies and personnel, and to include for the interview of the involved residents
and other parties who have knowledge of the alleged incident documenting on the interview records.
On 9/23/24 at 1455 hours, CDPH, L&C Program received the SOC 341 form dated 9/23/24. Review of the
SOC 341 showed the allegation of abuse by Resident 1 that he was hit in the head by a staff member.
Medical record review for Resident 1 was initiated on 10/2/24. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on

needs known but could not make medical decisions due to dementia (a group of conditions characterized
by impairment of thinking, judgement, and memory loss).
On 10/3/24 at 1040 hours, a review of the facility's investigation file folder was conducted. The facility's
documented the interviews and statements of the facility staff and Resident 1's interview. However, there
was no documented evidence Resident 1's roommate and/or other resident were interviewed by the facility
to identify other residents who were potentially subjected to abuse by the alleged perpetrator. Further
review of the facility's conclusion letter showed a resident council meeting was conducted on 9/19/23, with
the meeting minutes about the resident's knowledge about the allegation of abuse in the facility. However,
the resident council meeting was held four days before the information about the allegation of abuse for
Resident 1 was reported to the abuse coordinator.
On 10/3/24 at 1100 hours, an interview and concurrent medical record review for Resident 1 was
